The apartment was clean, comfortable and exactly as described. There were thoughtful touches like cream in the fridge and laundry soap, the amenities like coffee and tea were easy to find, and the apartment had the widest range of TV options we found in Australia. We had great communication with the property and a very easy check in. We would definitely stay again.

Apartment very clean, well stocked, very roomy and comfortable. Private secure parking in underground garage accessible by elevator. Elevator requires key fob to operate so the apartment itself is very secure. Surroundings are very convenient. Directly opposite is a very well stocked IGA, many cafes and restaurants to chose from including a 24/7 restaurant with outdoor seating. A ferry service runs from the north shore which is where this hotel is, all the way to the south shore (Streets Beach is one of the wharfs that it stops at). You need a go card but they let you on the ferry anyway and you can buy one at the Streets Beach station. Note that the cost to go an 50 minute run from south shore to our apartment is $1.42 - senior discount plus there are many times the ride is free for seniors. The ferry port Bretts Wharf is 900 steps from the hotel. The staff are very helpful and pleasant.

Hi Michael,Thank you for staying with us and thank you for the feedback. You were right while the apartment 911 has the corner view it does get a lot of sun during the day, and last few days have been very hot for Brisbane. Your feedback have been well noted, our management team will be in discussion with the owners for second aircon installation. Meantime we have advised our Housekeeping team to leave the aircon on and have all doors open for the day when the wheather is very hot, allow more time for the air to flow into the bedroom. Hopefully we will see you again when you return to brisbane and hopefully it will be cooler for you. RegardsTeam@ Link Portside

Check in was a breeze. Only feedback I have is no air-conditioning in the bedroom, had to leave the air-conditioning on in the loungeroom and have fans running to circulate the air. No screen on windows, otherwise would have just had the windows open and fans on. Other than that, very comfortable and very nice people running the hotel.

I would not stay at this property again. The room was not clean, there was food left behind by the previous guests, no milk was supplied for tea/coffee, the fridge was leaking; due to us checking in after hours, we could not request a room change. Also, the cleaner let herself into our room using her key at 7:40am!! Check out was at 10am. I emailed the establishment regarding my concerns and my emails have gone unanswered.

We are sorry you had issues with the apartment and you feel it was not upto your standard but, management inspected the apartment and found that the bedside tables and bedside lamps were dusty only. The Fridge had some condensation on the top of the door and a bag of unopened smiths crisps were left in the cupboard above the refrigerator. The cleaner knocked on the door and called out housekeeping but did not enter the apartment.

Hello, Sorry to hear you did not enjoy your stay, Link is not located near a car park, and we have never advertised that there is a swimming pool, sorry to hear your bed was uncomfortable, and the lamps did not work, however we would have replaced the lamps and arranged for a bed topper to make your stay more comfortable if we had know.
